Ingredients
Olive oil
1 tsp
Uncooked sweet Italian turkey sausage
4 oz, casings removed
Uncooked onion
1 medium, chopped
Red bell pepper
1 large, chopped
Egg
6 large egg(s)
1% low fat milk
2 Tbsp
Fresh thyme
½ tsp, finely chopped
Table salt
½ tsp
Black pepper
⅛ tsp
Grated Parmesan cheese
4 Tbsp, divided
Instructions
1
Preheat broiler.
2
Heat oil in a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook, breaking up sausage with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer sausage to a plate.
3
Add onion and red pepper to skillet and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in sausage.
4
Meanwhile, whisk together eggs, milk, thyme, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl until blended. Stir in 2 tbsp cheese.
5
Pour egg mixture evenly over vegetable mixture and cook, lifting edges frequently with a spatula to let any uncooked egg flow underneath, until eggs are almost set, about 4 minutes.
6
Sprinkle frittata with remaining 2 tbsp cheese. Place skillet under broiler 5 inches from heat and cook until eggs are set, 2 to 3 minutes. Cut into 4 wedges.
